Despicable Me (DNS)
Posted on 15 May 2011
I do enjoy most of Carrell’s work, but I get distracted by popular actors doing voice for animated films, especially when they have a particularly strong or unique voice and an active face. And, the movie is called “Despicable Me” and that is annoying and repelling.

This category of review (DNS) is as delicious to me as when the Sea Times has to give a movie “(no stars).” It’s like they wanted be sure the reader understands that it was not a case of them just not rating movies by stars. They indeed considered stars and arrived at 0. I love that you could even be bothered to push play.
However, I actually saw this with Tyler and was very surprised to be completely moved. I would apply 3.5 or 4/5 staries. The emotional connection achieved with the characters, and the main dude’s conversion, overcame the stupid yellow small guys and contrived start studded voice casting. I really liked it.

Well then, there it is, this goes in the queue Patio. And yes, the reasons why I do not see a film are sometimes fascinating to play with, is it the marketing, actors, genre, popularity. Same goes for music–I really should be a huge Arcade Fire fan but I’ve never given them a chance for some reason or another.
